I don't have any of those listed traits, but my pinky toes are crooked.

I don't have any of those...my toes have slight gaps between them, but I don't know what's normal.

And how does that 2:4 ratio thing work? My ring finger seems to be only slightly longer than my index. My ring is probably halfway between the index and middle.

0 option is missing.

I think I have zero of these characteristics though I do not know how wide apart eyes should be or should not be.

I'm not sure what relevance curved pinky fingers and widely spaced toes have unless facial anomalies accompany them. Facial anomalies could indeed be present. The eyes, head shape, size of brain, shape of face, tissue in the roof of the mouth could be indicators. These indicators could be subtle and not apparent without careful scrutiny.

Yeah, that.

I mean I've been diagnosed as having a high narrow palate (which has been artificially widened) so I know that much.

But what exactly are deformed earlobes? How curved is too curved in a finger? How far apart are toes too far apart and do they mean all toes or just some? Etc.

I have a number of physical anomalies, but most of them are not on this list.

I wasn't sure about the high arched palate so I Google imaged it. Then I got a small mirror and looked and it appears I do. I have the 2D4D thing but not the curved pinky. I have a wide space between my big toe and the second toe. My earlobes and eyes spacing are average. So 2 or 3 if you count 2D4D.

Just the pinky finger one, not sure about the palate one though.

Toes slightly too far apart; (no infact my toes are very close together closer than normal this makes me prone to atletes foot)
Deformed ear lobes; ( i dont think so so they are alittle big )
A higher palate; (have no idea)
Eyes slightly further apart. (no)

Hmm....I've read of "finely sculpted features" being an Aspie physical trait...anybody know what it looks like? Do they mean like a statue? If so, which one?

I think I score zero, though like has already been said, without a control group to prod and poke, it's hard to be sure.

I like the one about eyes being further apart than usual......maybe that's why I don't trust NTs?
